There will be a boost the month it comes out but it won't be that huge due to how late in the generation its launching. RDR2 didn't really cause a boost at all when it came out and GTA 6 will be releasing even later than that did, especially if it gets delayed into the 2nd half of 2026. There will still be an impact since GTA 6 hype is astronomical but it's more gonna be felt this year and last year than in 2026 I think. I bet a notable amount of PS5's sold late last year were due to GTA 6 and the same will be true for the holiday season this year. Hell that'll be going on to a degree right now since if someone intends to get a PS5 for it they may as well get one now before the price likely goes up.
It'll also benefit Xbox since the Series S will be the cheapest way to play it but with Xbox hardware dying it won't benefit as much since a PS5 is a clear better buy for the vast majority of people.
